    Ascent: Cross the bridge and follow the forest road uphill, which leads right through a short wooded area. At a corner near a forest clearing, turn left into open terrain. Now go straight up until just below a rocky steep section. Ascend diagonally right over a ramp onto a knoll, reaching a plateau at Klammalm alpine hut (1925 m). Continue straight ahead on flat ground, then after a corner turn left into the wide valley. Always stay left and climb over beautiful slopes up to a ridge that leads to a saddle (approx. 2250 m) between a steep ridge on the right and the mountain of Flading/Valettina on the left. Now you can see the Kleine Kreuzspitze summit. From the saddle, head slightly diagonally right into the large hollow and then up the steep summit slope to the peak.

    Descent: Same as the ascent.

    Good to know: This is a premium ski tour featuring designated and cleared parking areas at the starting points, information boards with a panoramic map, route overview and tour data, as well as avalanche transceiver checkpoints for safety equipment testing.

    The designation “passable” refers solely to the accessibility of the route and does not provide any information about avalanche conditions. These must always be assessed independently before each tour.
